Hi.
I'm trying to make the Cygwin Git understand Mingw-style repo urls:
git config --global \
file:///cygdrive/c.insteadOf \
file:///C:
But this fails with:
error: invalid key: file:///cygdrive/c.insteadOf
Manually editing ~/.gitconfig works fine:
[url "file:///cygdrive/c"]
insteadOf = file:///C:
il@MAR2 /cygdrive/c/progs/maven/maven-scm/maven-scm-providers/maven-scm-providers-git/maven-scm-provider-gitexe
$ LANG=C cmd.exe /X /C "git clone file:///C:/progs/maven/maven-scm/maven-scm-providers/maven-scm-providers-git/maven-scm-provider-gitexe/target/git_copy checkin-nobranch"
Cloning into 'checkin-nobranch'...

Understandable.

How about spelling what you want to happen on the command line
version the same way as your "manual" version? I.e.
git config --global \
url.file:///cygdrive/c.insteadOf \
file:///C:
notice the lack of "url." in your version.
